Please give me your opinions on this cross (MM 40) and case (unmarked) !!
Were EK2 awarded in this type of cases ?
Thanks, Hakan

Nice looking piece. They do pop up every once in a while but you should also be wary of them as are a lot of postwar cases out there too. This is my example.

Thanks for your replies gentlemen !
I do believe the box to be period made but didnt know if they where awarded in such boxes.
My box looks like a little cheaper version than yours Billy G. (very nice cross by the way)
but I have seen a couple of versions for sale trough the years so this must be just another one I guess. My box has no release button for the the lid for example but maybe some versions did not have that ?
Thanks, Hakan

Hi Hakan,
Thanks for your kind words. I checked my files & I don't have any that are missing the release button. Not saying yours is bad, just that I don't remember seeing one previously. There are some very well versed guys here that I'm sure can shed some light on your case. I hope it's good as I'm really a fan of the cased EK II. Good luck.

Not a case expert, however i do know that late war KvK1 case's came minus the catch system.
Always looking for Heeres Beamte (HV) and Sonderfuhrer items. Insignias, paperwork, photo's......

Thank you guys !
The ring is maker marked "40" for Berg & Nolte.
The paint is 100% and the frame retains alot of the frosting.
Does anyone know what a fair value whould be on this piece, just want to check if I did good !
